Critical Praise

"Gutcheon’s gift is for pure storytelling... Her characters and settings are alive, sparkling with deft touches of period detail; her narrative voice is knowing and wry, exasperated and affectionate."

—New York Newsday

"Good-Bye and Amen is a tour de force of structure and voice. Gutcheon had me at the first sentence and I didn’t put the book down until I had finished it. Marvelous and memorable."

—Karen Joy Fowler, author of Wit’s End and The Jane Austen Book Club

""[C]ompelling... Beautifully written and told from varying points of view, this sweeping saga will strike a chord with anyone who loves to read about family. Four stars."

—Romantic Times

"Editor’s Choice."

—Denver Post
